Today was a solid workout. Luke did a mile and a half with me for my warmup and then went home. He's starting to get better I think. I ran the first mile and a half of my workout with Teagan and then finished the remaining three miles by myself. They felt really good. I pushed the pace but I didn't have my watch so I don't know what it was. My heart was pumping pretty hard though so I assume it was probably fast. My calf didn't hurt either. I'm going to continue slowly adding to my workout.

AM-

Three and a half easy miles for recovery. However, I took the last mile fast because I was feeling good and felt like it. 

PM-

Half hour of core, followed by a half out of lifting, followed by 25 minutes of swimming

It's been a few months since I swam last. My shoulders and hips and lower back are sore but that's okay. The cross training is good.

Today was supposed to be a distance day but I was sore from last night. My calf felt a little off so I eased up. I think I did a little too much yesterday. My calf feels better though. I iced, heated, and rolled it. I'll plan my cross training and lifting for my off days. Luke cam with me for a little bit. The hill's that lead out of our neighborhood hurt his knees a little so I'll have him run a downhill course tomorrow. I'm glad he's sticking with it.

Seven miles today with Nathan. We did a few repeats. Idk about times because I didn't have a watch but Nathan said I was on track for 6:30-7:00. I think that's pretty good considering I'm coming off of injury. I wasn't trying to push very hard. The trail we were on was sort of hilly (small hills, not terrible but I hate any sort of hill) so I rode the downhills and maintained a good pace on the flat and uphill parts. There was some wind too but it wasn't so bad. So it was an overall solid day.

Everything was pretty sore so I did a very short shakeout. I went to the rec center in the evening and lifted for a while and swam after that. I really think that the lifting and swimming are going to help a lot.

I did five miles at a good pace (idk what it was but it wasn't slow or fast) and then went back home to grab Luke. He did the last two miles with me. He's getting better, he just needs to pace a little better. Overall, it was a solid seven. I did my daily core later.
